Email testing just got easy.

Which email clients are your subscribers using?

Testing your design in all the different email
clients is the most frustrating part of sending email campaigns.
Our design and spam testing tool changes all that by doing
the hard work for you. For a small fee you'll get all this
with a single click...

The hardest part about designing emails is making
them look great in the dozens of email clients out there. This
report makes that a thing of the past by showing exactly which
email clients your subscribers are using. It's a huge time
saver.

Web designers have known for years the difficulties
of dealing with the capabilities of different web browsers,
like Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari.

The same web page can render very differently
for different viewers... and email clients are even more varied.

Instead of just a few major browsers, you need
to consider more than 10 email programs with major market share.
And while web browsers are getting much better in terms of
their standards support, many email clients have a long way
to go.

So a big part of getting better results from
your email campaigns is making sure your emails are readable
and appealing in as many different email programs as possible.
There is a couple of ways you can do this:

Use your own testing resources

You may already have a few of the major email
programs available to you, like a Gmail account, an Outlook
2007 inbox and a Blackberry, for example. Promothon makes it
easy to send a preview of your campaign to several addresses
at once. You can login to your accounts and check out the results.

Your test addresses are remembered for you too,
so you won’t even need to type them in after the first
time. If you need to test more widely though, or you don’t
want to invest your time and effort into setting up a whole
test suite yourself, Promothon9 has another option.

Use
the full design and spam testing suite

For
a small fee, you can have your email campaign tested in
more than 15 of the most popular email clients like Outlook
2007, Windows Live Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, Lotus Notes and many
more. It covers desktop, web based and mobile clients.

Not only do you have much wider coverage than
you would be able to do on your own (at least without a lot
of money and time), you also get your email run through several
spam filters, including McAfee Security Center, Norton AntiSpam,
Outlook, MessageLabs, Postini and Spam Assassin.

Automatically
test in the email clients that count

Knowing which email clients to
target is one thing. When you combine this report with our
design and spam testing service, you can generate screenshots
of exactly how your design looks in these email key clients.
Remove all the guesswork in a single click.

Can't I just do this myself?

Sure, but it sucks. You'll need to create test
accounts at all the free ISP's above like Hotmail and Yahoo,
sign up (and pay) for other ISP's like Earthlink and Comcast,
set up a few virtual machines to cover different operating
systems and purchase and install each of the spam filters we
test in. Total cost, just under $10,000.

Or, you can click your mouse once and we'll
do the lot for you.

Do I have to be a customer?

Nope. As long as you have a free
account with us, you can use our testing tool to get your
design just right with no obligation to use Promothon for anything
else.

Image
blocking and preview pane ready

Most of the popular email clients enforce image
blocking and preview panes these days. Not only will we take
screenshots of your design, but we'll take multiple versions
with images on, images off and even how your design looks in
the horizontal or vertical preview pane.

Your
email tested against spam filters and firewalls

Instead of just scanning your content for "spammy
words", we’ll pass your email through real spam
filters and tell you exactly why you failed. We’ll also
run your email through a number of key spam firewalls - the
gatekeepers for most ISP’s and large corporations.
